Some of My Fan Art

 

Hello, people in Poisea! Flanngy here for another blog post!

I totally love doing blogs, I just don't do it often...like at all, but anyway here's another post about something to do with my art.

In my last post, I explained how much I have done this year, and one of them is that I've been doing a lot of Tik-Tok. I found a lot of great artists on Tik-Tok, and I like to show off my art a few times too, it's fun. But I also find people doing the "Draw it in Your Style" kind of thing, and I have done it a few times and tried to do more but I just can't seem to find the time to do so.
This is Earth Girl, the original artist that asked to do it in your style was a lot different than this. She was Blue and green all over her body, clouds covering certain areas, and her hair was blue. I am not the kind of person that likes to draw or show off immodesty, but I loved the idea.

Her hair is supposed to be water as her body is earthy, and she is surrounded by space. I love how I did it, and I hope you think so too.



When Halloween was around town, I found a challenge for Pumpkin witch. The hat actually didn't turn out as I wanted it to, but I was in a hurry and couldn't really perfect it as much but it still looks good.

I've been showing off more of my art lately on Tik-Tok, which usually I don't for I rather just act-react some of the stuff they do on there. But this month of November I found another challenge that asks you to do art each day of November, even just drawing a line counts, so I've been doing that each day and sometimes I forget and do it at the last second, but I do feel like now that's all I want to do is create art and showing it off on Tik-Tok, not just on my blogs. 

One person asked if I was a teacher for in one of my Tik-Tok videos you can see all of my art stuff and desk and such, I'm not a teacher but a comic art momma that is trying her best to fulfill her dream and be a momma at the same time.


If no one heard or knew about it, the new game Hyrule Warriors is out and I like it so much better than the first game. This Hyrule warrior takes place before the Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild. Which is also a really great game. I made my own ending to that game for I was a little disappointed how it ended and hope the next Zelda game they will make will be more about Link and Zelda.



I did two parts videos on Tik-Tok with this Zelda comic, and I didn't get many likes, views, or comments, but it was still fun to do, and maybe I'll do another Zelda Fanart.

I have made a lot of fan art. Last year at Fan-X I have created so much art for it. My friend and I worked together on it. She would draw them and I would color, and then split the money after it was all done. 

After Fan-X was over, I was expired to do more fanart and I did a theme all month October last year to post art on Youtube every week, and it was tiring but I did it and got...zero likes and subscribers. Ha. 

Princess Mononoke, this was the first Fanart I did for Fan-X last year, and I can see so many problems with this picture. I didn't know how to color it once my prince sent it over to me. She already had details like the leaves, that cliff, and the sky. So it was tricky to color around that.

At Fan-X this picture of Sailor Moon was the popular picture sold.





I drew and colored this from a series called Death Note, a wonderful friend introduce me to this show and I deeply liked L. That's his code name, L, and spoiler alert, he dies, so sad!

I drew and colored this it's from an Anime series called Princess Tutu, it is my favorite anime because of the story and the fact there is ballet in it. I grew up dancing ballet so it is one of the things I loved doing, I can't do it anymore because of my knee.

I drew and colored this, she is my favorite character from Demon Slayer.

I colored this. Pharoh used to be in my dreams. (Yugi's other person, I don't remember his name it's been a long time.)

Ug, this is supposed to be Ariana Grande. For last year while doing a picture each week of October I wanted to do one of my favorite singers Ariana Grande, there are three reasons why I like her. One, I think she has a really good voice but that doesn't mean I listen to her music that often. Two, I actually love her hairstyle. And three, she knows and loves Imogen Heap, who I know and love and adore.

Sia, I listen to her music all the time.


I've been rewatching Once upon a time and still love the show.


The new series of Fruit Basket is pretty good. They are following the book more closely and much more serious than the last series they did. I do like Fruit Basket and can't wait for the next season.


That's just a little bit of Fanart, for now, the reason also why I want to make more fanart is because while I was at Fan-X last year, there was a guy right across from our table and his booth was filled with art. All kinds of fan art that he has done and there were so many! he had a tall thing that was like 20 feet high and it had a lot of his art on it. It was so amazing and I want to do something like that, but I don't know, at the same time...I might not go back to Fan-X. Only because it does cost a lot to get a table there.

My success this Year of 2020

 Ok, so this year is coming up to an end, and I didn't do all of my new year's resolution. I have been doing good keeping up my eating habit and such, but as far as going with my Youtube videos and posting blog posts and drawing more...not so much.

I only made to page 88 of Sweeet and Sour book 2, and the first book is still not published and working on being edit and such. 

I looked up how long it takes for other artists to do a comic book and it said 6-8 months! My first book took me almost three years to do, and yeah sure a lot has happened, I was being a mom and figuring out how to use my tablet, but I really thought I can do better with my next book but so far it hasn't. 

But I shouldn't get too hard on myself for one, this year really sucked, 2020 was really the year to suck, I was going through a lot with my personal life, I don't want to go into details about it now but maybe sometime in the future.

My comics were very small this year, I tried making more, and these two are the only ones I really made...


I know that 2020 wasn't the best year, so much has happened and people on Facebook are asking to read the terms and conditions for 2021, but honestly, it's coming no matter what, so yeah that's where the idea came from.

Last year I was making a lot more silly comics with Nonny Whitney and Tutu, but this year I wasn't on top of it. I did make a few about the Coronavirus, but that's about it. 




As goes for Youtube, I think I only made two videos. The Mother Hood 2, and Crushes, wow. I tried doing vlog videos but that also sunk. I just don't know how to make vlog videos. I get so nervous talking to a camera about...whatever, I don't like it. I don't know if I can keep up with Youtube, it's still a dream of mine to be a Youtuber, my new favorite Youtuber is Alex Myer, he does animations but does commentary on movies and shows I really enjoy watching them. He is so funny. 

But one thing that has happened to me this year that was good and I worked on very hard is Tiktok. Yes, Tiktok. I started doing Tiktok videos last year in September when I was getting to my lowest points, Tiktok helped me get through my days. I was making videos like crazy, I enjoyed doing whatever with the app, I didn't care for popularity I just liked what the app had and made it so fun.

When my personal life became crazy at the beginning of this year I took a break, only had like 100 followers and that's fine I didn't even think I would get any followers. But after a while, I started doing TikTok again, and from the moment I posted that video, (it was a video of Spongebob sound telling Patrick how to open a jar,) BOOM! already got so many followers and likes like never before. That was such a wow moment for me that I continued making videos.

During October month I tried dressing up doing a little cosplay kind of thing for the spirit of Halloween. I dressed up as a pumpkin, Zelda, a Vampire, Hello Kitty, a Witch, and did 2020 Doll. It was my own creation to dress up as like a 2020 doll, a doll for 2020, I looked pretty yet scary, has one fang tooth, put toilet paper in my hair, it was fun, I did enjoy dressing up and making a lot of Tiktoks.
2020 Doll.
Sorry, you can't see the toilet paper in my hair.


I made it to 1000 followers, and I couldn't believe it. My goal is to make it to 10,000 followers now, cause I'm like getting there, and I still enjoy making Tiktoks. Like a lot. I make a bunch of Tiktoks whenever I can and then post only a few a day, two in the morning, and two at night. I got one video that has made 11.06K views, wow! But most of the time my videos only get viewed 100. Sometimes even less, it's odd but it's ok, I am still happy with how many followers I have. 

On my Youtube channel I still only have 20 subscribers... well, I still continue to try for I am working on another video and maybe I can be better at doing vlog videos...I don't really know. 

But as a celebration for my 1000 followers, I drew a picture.
This picture is supposed to be me using the koala bear girl filter, I use it a lot, mainly when I don't feel pretty I use it. But yeah, it has the Tiktok logo in the back and my double chin. Cause I also like to show off my double chin and my unsuccessful cross-eyes. I can't really cross my eyes but try my best. 
But yeah thank you for whoever is following me on Tiktok, it has given me another purpose to succeed in life and wants to continue with it, you can definitely check me out at it @flanngy_kproductions.

Summer Wave of Art

 

When I notice how I haven't made a comic in a while...I decided to make one, it's been too long. I have lost my touch figuring out comics so as I started this comic it was supposed to be something completely different but, as I was doing it this idea came out and I like it much better. It just really came to me and I asked my sisters for advice and grammar check and my older sister has asked if she said, "You said not to pretend, I wasn't pretending!" at the end, before it said, "I was just kidding! Mistakes were made," but I like it better the other way. 

I have been working on Sweet and Sour 2, even though the first book is still not out there yet. I have a way to possibly get it published but I just want to make sure that the grammar is correct, so I had my friend read it and now my sister is reading it since I don't have an editor I'm doing my best here. I haven't done a vlog video, for I never know what to do or say in them, but I am working on other animations. I don't know if I should spoil what it is for I want it to be surprised, but I will say that the title is called "Death By Peanut," hmm?

I am also working on another project, I have been diligently working on for a few weeks now and it's not my book. I have been hired to work on a children's book for someone else, I am not sharing details about it for I don't think I can, but I do want to say that I was very happy to do it. It was originally given to a relative of mine, but she has too much on her plate so she asked if I can take it, I gave the guy a few of my examples and he liked it so I was given this task and going to get paid. YAY! My first thing ever as an artist! Besides Fan X, last year I was at Fan X with my friend selling art and it went ok, didn't make very much but it was great being there.

Summer is almost over and it's always a birthday wave for me and my family, in August we had birthdays every week, and I was asked to make some of the party invitations. Besides everything else I was trying to draw, I made time to draw birthday parties invitations for my family. I am not going to share them exactly but I will share that I drew my daughter and her cousin's birthday party theme wear. It was a mini mouse theme party, and on the cake, they had this picture below on it! Isn't that the cutest! it was a great party and so happy that everyone likes my art.


I keep getting requests which can be hard but I manage. I had a request for myself as well, haha. I decided to draw all of my family members and their families as a family portrait. I won't share my whole family but I will share mine. My family right below. Me and my two kids, the beginning of this year was messed up, and not only because of everything else that was happening this year, but for me personally I had a decision to make and it was part of the reason why I stopped drawing for a while. It is personal and not ready to share it, but I do love my kids and want to be there for them no matter.

And lately all summer long I've been doing this chapter, chapter six. Today I realized that I finally got to the end of it and finally on Chapter seven. I didn't do the one page a day at all, I only got to it when I can and it shouldn't take that long but also this chapter was hard to do because there are complicated scenes in it. It's full of action. Fighting, arguing, and such so I was dreaded on it.

My Crushes

 So a few weeks ago I uploaded a video that is called Crushes on my K Productions 3.0 channel. I have two-channel, one K Productions 3.0 and the other is Flanngy's Channel. I have two because I am not sure what K Productions 3.0 is really all about. I originally created it to do animations but then it became difficult posting a lot of other crap, so I decided to make a channel all about Flanngy. Flanngy's vlogs, and possibly other videos like gaming or funny silly videos with Flanngy character. Flanngy is a character I made up, I have made a few videos me dressed up as Flanngy in K Productions 3.0. 

But anyways this is about Crushes. 


This video I wanted to do something different, compared with all of my other videos I have done I wanted to try coloring it. But if I was going to color it then I wanted to make it super short, this video is only two minutes long and yet it took me four months to make.

  Well about two months, I started animating it at the end of February and got it done in July. But I did have a few gaps in between for I was dealing with my personal life. I have mentioned my personal life, not getting into details but it has gotten crazy and trying to get my life back together. One day I will explode about it but not right now.

Crushes are somewhat poetic, not exactly but were trying to make it like a poem. But it's really, not a poem.

I had a few crushes in my life, but not big enough to like tell. I had one crush in middle school and I told my friend about it, every day my crush and I would talk a lot and I was really liking him. But once my friend found out about it she had to go to him and ask, "Do you know Krystal? Do you like her?" and that was so embarrassing. He stopped talking to me. 

Why is it when someone finds out they like someone they just stop talking to you? Like what the heck! When he decided to stop being my friend I was very angry, upset, and of course, I didn't like him anymore. 

In the video, it shows that Whitney (the purple dress girl) that she has a crush on a redhead. I did have a crush on a redhead once, in High school. He was so awesome, but I was so shy to be around him. I hardly spoke to him but whenever he does talk to me I would talk back but I always felt like I say the wrong thing or can't talk at all, it's embarrassing. On a class project for our drama class they put us in groups and had to act certain characters, I asked to act like I was flirting with the redhead guy, and as funny as I did it, I was really flirting with him. I remember how he picked me up from the ground acting all exciting about something and I loved it. But yet again we weren't really anything, he was just an awesome redhead kid in my drama class.








I didn't really have any other crushes that I think of. I know that some other guys had a crush on me, which yeah I do find a bit strange for I never thought they did.  But there were a few that were obvious. 

Well, one kid in my elementary school class did have a major crush on me and he did show it. He gave me gifts, and I have no idea where he is now but I want him to know that I did like the gifts, it was so sweet of him to do that to me, it did make me feel special but yet I did treat him unkindly cause I didn't feel the same but he wasn't ugly, he was a cute boy and who knows how he looks today.  No other guy did that to me and even how young I was.






In middle and high school I didn't have many guy friends. I mainly hanged out with girls because they were easier for me to hang out with, each time a guy becomes my friend I don't see them as my friend, I saw them as my potential husband so I was "shy " I guess you could say but I don't really call myself that for I do get loud.

When there are no good boys around I somehow get dumb boys treated me so stupidly. In science class they always bugged me about my art, one kid drew a naked woman and I was so grossed out and yet the teacher did nothing about it. In the same class, the stupid boys were playing around with the textbooks, and one sudden hit my face and it hurt real bad and the teacher yet again did nothing about it! I just had a nose bleed and no one seemed to care. Ok not all true, there was one student that was a male that came to me and asked if I was doing ok and I just answered I was in pain but what can you do and then he went back to his seat because the teacher told him too. 

I hate how dumb young teenagers can be, I'm not saying teenagers are all bad but there were a few that acted mature when they weren't, so many times the dumb guys in class would interrupt class and try to get me to make out with them, but laugh as if they are joking and I don't do anything about it. I don't say anything for it's dumb that they are asking me to do so in the first place. 

This video did bring back a lot of high school memories, it's been like 9 years since I graduated in high school. I still enjoy looking at cute boys, and really into romance. The boys below are the guys that I have created in my stories. I know I haven't published like none of them but that's where they came from. Which guy is your favorite?

This is embarrassing but I don't what to Title this

So after months of not making more vlog videos, I decided to make one recently! From the beginning of this year, I started to make Vlog videos to help me to accomplish my goal of making my second book. But in February something happened to my personal life that put everything on hold. I couldn't draw for the longest time, and once things got settled I started to draw again.


I didn't know what to call this vlog video for I wasn't even sure what to talk about. So it's embarrassing to me, I wanted to make a vlog but didn't know what to say so I feel like it's a bunch of stuff and not really have a specific subject. I talked about how I am drawing again like my book Sweet and Sour 2 and trying to do more animations and such. I have mentioned how my friend and I draw pictures and you can make a request, it costs $20 dollars and we can draw anything you wish. 

Here is some of the fan work we have done. Again my friend draws it and I colored it, but I have done a few pictures where I have done both. 





Here are the ones I have done as requests and did both of the drawings and coloring. 



I am learning each time I try to color before I wouldn't dare color. My sister would use color pencils to color the pictures I would draw, but every time I tried doing that I just couldn't, for like I didn't really know how too. In art classes I took in High School I would be so freakin good at the drawing part, I did every assignment that involved drawing pencils, charcoal, and black and white art I had my art displayed every time. It was so cool, but whenever we had to paint, watercolor, anything colorful I would do good but not like great. I just for some reason wasn't that great at it and was very hesitant to try when I got my tablet.


Exhibit A. This was the first attempt I tried to paint on the Medibang Paint pro. It looks so bad.


Now some say, "Oh it doesn't look bad, your better than me," trust me when I say that this is bad. I can do better and am getting better every time. I learn so much through tutorials on Youtube and hope to make more for myself. I have done a few for my channel.
This is the same picture from before, see how much better it is. But look at my latest one.

Boom!
Look at that handsome dude, and his coloring is so good looking.

I get better, practice does make perfect, as long as your practice the right way. I have known a girl that has been drawing as much as me but I feel like her drawings are not improving. He makes amazing characters and outfits but the way it looks, it looks like a child drew them. That might be harsh to say but it is true, I know I drew like a child once, but have improved so much.

Wow, I Got a Thing For Music Videos

So much has happened, besides the fact that this world is coming to an end, but I have been dealing a lot. My personal life got way too much in the way for me to do anything. In my last post, I was talking about how much I was working and it felt great, each day I manage to draw one page of my book and working on my next video, but I had to stop for I was busy moving. I have moved to a new place with my girls and it was so stressful moving but I got it done in one week.

Before I moved, my sister wanted to do a video about Milo Murphy, she wanted to dress like him and act like him and thought that maybe making a music video would be a great idea. So we got my other sister to be Melissa and my nephew to be Zack. We bought the outfits and manage to make this work. I directed and held the camera, I enjoy making music videos and had lots of fun doing this one for we had to be creative making Murphy's Law. 


We have made other kinds of music videos when we were in our teenage years, ('we' as in me and my sisters, Karli and Kynsie). Kynsie is Melissa in the Milo Murphy's Law video, and Karli is my older sister that is shorter than me in this next video called Melt Down by The Aquabats. The camera quality is not the greatest, I feel like it made the lightening very orange color, but it's still fun to watch. 


Video making has been a talent that I started to really enjoy doing. My sisters and I would make music videos quite frequently but as we got older we didn't do it as much. I have tried taking a video class and I did learn some things, but honestly, that class was so boring. The teacher would come out, say a few things tell us our assignments, and then hibernate in his office. I would hardly do anything, I would be in group of guys that did nothing but watch dumb stuff. Only one of them knew how to use the video maker editing thing on their computers since the teacher didn't want to teach any of his students how to use the computer editing system thing. I wish I could have learn but the only thing I really learn is pointing a camera correctly.

I to this day still enjoy making videos. It's probably why I really enjoy doing Tik Tok videos. When I started doing Tik Tok I couldn't stop, I think that app was meant for someone like me. I make short simple videos and it's fun to do with the effects, sounds, and such. 

I also make videos like my animations videos, it's not the best animation but it's something and I do enjoy making them, even though they do take a long time and patience to do. With my 20 Subscribers video, I explain how I animat in there, so check it out!


I guess I am posting a lot of videos in this post, so here's another one. I did this one as a treat for me todo on my Seventeenth birthday. (That was ten years ago today! Wow!) My sisters asked for me to make this video so I could be distracted that day as they prepared my surprised party, I enjoy it and was happy to do it. It may be work to do the editing part, but it's also the fun part, (but at that time my old computer would cooperate with me so it was frustrating.) The song is called Headlock by Imogen Heap. 


I don't know if I'll make another music video any time soon, but there is a music video I would love to do that is one of the original songs that I created. I have lots of songs I created and would like to get them published into albums and such, but I have no idea when that will happen for I don't have the money to do it professionally and I can do it just my cheap plan I have here, I just record on my phone and such I have been doing that to some of my other songs. 

But this certain song I have that I made recently is something very precious and I tend to choke for it explains some really dark times that I experience in my life recently. It's called Underwater, so the idea for the music video would be "Underwater". At least I think so, I don't know when that will happen but it is on my bucket list.

The Struggle is Real
